What are the common features of the organic compounds?

● All organic compounds contain carbon atoms and most contain hydrogen atoms.


S i r
All the carbon atoms have four bonds. A stable carbon atom is said to be
tetravalent.

What are the common features of the organic compounds?

● Other elements may also be present. Any atom that is not carbon or hydrogen is

called a heteroatom. Common heteroatoms include N, O, S, P and the halogens.

The s orbital is closer to the nucleus and thus lower in energy than the p orbital

S i r
Hybridized orbitals are degenerate i.e. they occupy the same energy level; however,

p t a
they are higher in energy than the 2s orbital and lower in energy than the 2p orbital.

Bond length and bond strength

The greater the s-character, the closer the electrons are held to the nucleus, the shorter

resonance hybrid is more stable than any individual resonance structures.
